I’m all about efficiency and information…a smart phone helps me with both. Some examples.

I can’t count the number of times I’ve walked into Home Depot / Lowes / Target and forgotten half the things I was going to buy. Now I keep lists to myself on todoist.com and if I forget? I just whip out the smart phone and check my list…

Just last week, we drove to a party in MM. When we arrived, the parking lot was empty and it was a half-hour after the party was to start. I whipped out the cell phone and checked email to see if I had the address wrong. No, I had the right address. So we went in – the club owner said it was typically a late arriving crowd (!!) and other guests would be arriving soon. He was right.

Quite often, a question will arise that will need an answer or a map. Bam! Right there on my hip is Wikipedia and Google Maps.

The finding ppl in the crowd thing was already mentioned, but in large crowds a cell’s voice/text capability is a HUGE time saver (true, it doesn’t required a smart phone but just a regular cell).
